Whenever I do "su" in an xterm window, I get two AVC denials. The
command xauth is denied to read and write a file .xauthXXXXX where
XXXXX is some random string different each time. (I encose an example
below.)
I would bugzilla this, but I'm (as often) not quite sure if it's the
policy or if it's me. That is, if maybe this is not intended to be
allowed? Or if there there something else I might be missing? I
can't see any boolean I would connect to this.
So, is this a bug I should report, or is it intentional?
